  2. Cut pickles into 1/2-inch slices and use a smaller round utensil to punch a hole through the center of each slice.
  3. Stuff each slice with cream cheese and lay on a greased sheet pan to make sure they do not stick.
  4. Season flour with 2 tablespoons of Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning and then coat each filled slice evenly.

  8. Drain cooked pickle slices on a sheet pan lined with paper towels and continue until all pickles are done.
  9. While pickles are slightly cooling, mix together pepper jelly, Tony’s Pepper Sauce, rice vinegar, mayo, Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning and yellow mustard.
